This cabin is in a beautiful location at the top of a hill. It’s best to give yourself a little time to get up the winding roads, especially if there’s fog. When we arrived, we were met by our host who is very friendly and helpful. We felt very welcome and enjoyed our conversation with him. He is a big LOTR fan so we had a fun time talking about filming locations and personal stories he had. The cabin is well appointed and we found the electric blanket and space heater were on when we arrived. There are some nice amenities for eating a meal, having coffee, and there’s cereal for breakfast. There is also a small fridge. Do bring any other food you want to eat because there’s nothing super close. We walked down the dirt path at night to view the glow worms and also had the chance to see lots of stars and the Milky Way. The private bathroom is just around the corner from the cabin, an easy 10 second walk and not spooky in the dark - it’s easy to turn on lights to find your way. It was clean, comfortable and warm. This place is very peaceful and homey and we would absolutely stay here again. It was a highlight of our trip.

The cabin is in the woods. Amazing view of the Mountains and the sheeps right next door. Hundreds of beautiful sheeps . The cleaness is impeccable. And the hosts lovely people. If you go to Waitomo Caves and need a place to stay. Pick this for sure.

My wife and I stayed for two nights in cabin 1. It was charming, clean, and exactly as advertised. The small kitchenette was perfect for our purposes (we had not intended to cook & instead done in the village); the fridge was nicely stocked for breakfast. The heaters worked well in both the main room and in the bathroom that’s just a few steps away across the porch (private). The bathroom is small but, again, perfectly sufficient. The location is breathtaking. The view from the porch across the valley is sublime, from dusk till dawn. We also loved walking down to the glowworm grotto on the property—a nice “private” supplement to cave tours nearby. Our morning hike in the area was also wonderful. The quiet and peace with only sheep and cows nearby (& the occasional farmer) can’t be beaten. We would return in a heartbeat if we returned for another visit to NZ. Highly recommended.

If you’re looking for a unique place to stay in Waitomo that will not disappoint, this is the place. The hosts are next level hospital, particularly “Ratbag” and you’ll be hard pressed to beat the views. Tranquil, peaceful, cosy, relaxing and truly restorative. No, you won’t get wifi or room service but what you will get is your own private glowworm grotto, breathtaking views and leave feeling warm, loved and wishing you could stay longer. Truly unforgettable accommodation.

Heaven

Amazing views, the host was incredibly welcoming and happy to have a chat. The farm was beautiful and the walk to the pond was pure magic. Our kids loved the loft beds and the little lambs running around. Small touches everywhere with extra blankets and hot water bottles. Only wish we stayed longer to enjoy it a little more.

We cannot say enough about this property. We were absolutely floored by the views, the hospitality, and the comfort. Angus is the best host I've ever interacted with. He was so welcoming, had great recommendations, and we loved talking to him. We also adored the onsite kitty!

If you are going to visit the glow worms in the caves, this is the best place to stay as you can get to see your own personal glow worms at the sink hole a couple of minutes walk from your bed! A fantastic addition to the overall experience! There are also other things to see on the farm. Angus is a smashing host who loves to share!

Te Tiro was a lovely place to get away and enjoy one of the most beautiful areas I have ever been. Our host was welcoming and accommodating and the cabin we stayed in was very comfortable. He showed us areas to walk around the farm and there is a pathway to an area to see glow worms a short walk from the cabin. The kitchen is well appointed and there is a bbq to use. To maximize your relaxation time I would note that the nearest grocery is ~30 min drive away, so best to come stocked.

Botched self check-in

Was impressed with the detailed and clear arrival instructions sent via email prior to our arrival, and was looking forward to our 2x night stay in cabin 2 with its sweeping view of the hills below. On arrival we were surprised and disappointed that a couple of other guests took it upon themselves to occupy the cabin I booked six months prior. Though they begrudgingly were willing to move to their cabin, that would have meant we would have moved in to a cabin they had been occupying for the last couple of hours. Without a desire to use gently used bedding and facilities, we let them keep our cabin and view. Would recommend taking a look at the self check in procedures to prevent similar occurrences in the future.

Beautiful cabin , view and grounds

Beautiful location, grounds and cabin. So close to glow worm caves and have their own little glow worm grotto on the property. Only a 60 second walk from the cabins. Also close to a waterfall and black sand beach. Angus was such a gracious host who made sure we had everything we needed including toast jams and coffee. Beds had heated blankets if needed and hot water bottles. Shower was awesome, hot with good water pressure. The grounds were amazing!!! Angus, his parents Allister & Anne were sooo kind and gracious. They even toured us around their beautiful garden which was in full bloom with giant rhododendrums!!! Gorgeous garden that they should be proud of. They allowed us to hike on their property and directed us to a hike to a small lake on their property. Wish I could post pictures but this website won't upload for some reason. I highly recommend Te Tior and hope to someday return.

Up on top of a mountain surrounded by a farm. Incredible views. Angus gave us a warm welcome. 10 minutes from the glow worm caves. We stayed in cabin 1. Rustic. A short walk to a private glow worm grotto.

The host/owner could not have been nicer! He was so friendly and hospitable. The property was to die for gorgeous! Take a short walk down to the Glowworm Grotto or wander along the sheep farm/property. This place was idyllic! We wish we could have stayed longer.

A beautiful location and warm welcome from the host. The upstair beds were very small for an adult and probably more suitable for children. I'd also have appreciated a more eco friendly cabin - it would be helpful if there would be recycling bins and Eco friendly household products.
